to have money is to save it. The one
sure way to save it is by depositing it
in a responsible bank. You will then
be exempt from the annoyance of hav-
ing it burn holes in your pockets, and
aside from the fact that your money
will be safe from theft, the habit of sav-
ing tends to the establishment of thrift,
economy, discipline and a general un-
derstanding of business principles es-
sential to your success.
To those wishing to establish rela-
tions with a safe, strong bank, we
heartly extend our services.
